State Senator Sue Rezin is calling on constituents to honor veterans by submitting photos and stories of their loved ones who served in the military. These submissions will be displayed in the rotunda of the Illinois Capitol from November 11 to 25 as part of a Veterans Day tribute.
The initiative aims to recognize the sacrifices and legacies of veterans, ensuring their stories are preserved for future generations. Families are invited to provide a photo and a written story, not exceeding 250 words, including details such as the veteran's name, military branch, and conflict served. Military photos are preferred but not mandatory.
Submissions should be sent via email to veteransday@sgop.ilga.gov by November 8. Alternatively, they can be mailed to Veterans Day Wall, 110 D Statehouse, Springfield, IL 62706. For further inquiries, individuals can contact (217) 782-1154.
Senator Rezin emphasized the importance of this tribute: "The tribute honors the brave men and women who have served their country, preserving their stories and sacrifices for future generations."
